Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Chapter 54 The Truth is in My Arms

After Li Zhi separated from Wuxi and the others, the smiling expression on his face disappeared instantly, and was replaced by a calm look.

In fact, his interactions with Wuxi and the others were actually based on selfish motives and schemes.

Even though he said it so nicely, he actually knew very well that not to mention Wuxi, even Wusi and the others were much stronger than him.

Normally when encountering danger or difficulties, people would seek help from above. No one would abandon the above and seek help from below.

So, although Li Zhi’s promise sounds good, it is actually useless.

As for Wuxi's promise to him, Li Zhi was still relieved because of what he had just communicated with Wuxi and the others.

He found that Wuxi and others attached great importance to the cause and effect. This time, Li Zhi indirectly saved Wuxi's life, and the cause and effect were huge. So he was not worried. If he really had something to do and went to the Great Buddha Kingdom to find Wuxi, he would refuse.

Thinking of this, Li Zhi couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He knew that he was calculating everything and that it was indeed a bit too much to act like this, but what else could he do in this world?

He is just an ordinary person, an ordinary time traveler, without a system and without a golden finger.

If he is not careful, how can he survive in this world?

In this world, Li Zhi has seen many people who are stronger than him. If he is a little careless, he may die without a burial place at any time.

He was cautious and calculating in every step, just wanting to survive.

Take one step and look three steps ahead.

This is a requirement that Li Zhi set for himself and must enforce.

He looked back at the village behind him.

At this time, the sky was just turning pale, and the morning light was just breaking, shrouding the whole village in a hazy state. There were some movements in the village, and the rustling sound was the villagers getting up and getting ready to work.

After Li Zhi withdrew his gaze, he set out again on the journey to Xiaoyao Mountain.

 …

"call--"

Li Zhi let out a long breath, and his face showed fatigue.

After he had refined all the things that needed to be refined in his hands, he felt the connection between him, the Five Ghosts and the Black Sword becoming clearer and clearer. With the three mosquito monsters buzzing around him, the fatigue in his heart also disappeared.

These are the basis for Li Zhi to survive in this world.

Li Zhi thought about it and decided to organize all the things he had now. This would also allow him to have a clearer judgment of himself.

He picked up the black sword. As the time of refining increased, he could more sense the emotional fluctuations transmitted to him by the black sword. This made Li Zhi full of confidence in the black sword. He believed that once the seal of the black sword was lifted, it would definitely bring him great help.

After putting the black sword down, he pulled up his sleeves.

A red rope is wrapped around the left wrist, and the red rope is wrapped along the back of the hand, dividing into five parts at the back of the hand.

The five red ropes are tied around the five fingers, and there is a copper coin tied with a red rope on the back of each finger joint.

The way this red rope is tied is very clever. It does not hinder the movement of the palm, and it is also strong and will not fall off. Moreover, as long as Li Zhi skillfully flicks it, the coin on the corresponding finger will fall automatically.

Li Zhi learned this from an old woman when he passed by a village. Despite the opposition of Master Liu, Li Zhi stayed in the village for two whole days before he learned it. Li Zhi was almost scolded by Master Liu.

However, this brought great convenience to Li Zhi. Whenever he wanted to summon the five ghosts, he only had to move his fingers, the copper coin would fall and vibrate, and the little ghost inside the copper coin would appear immediately.

This is also because the connection between Li Zhi and the little ghost has not yet reached the stage of true telepathy, and also because the connection between the little ghost and Li Zhi weakened after entering the copper coin.

Therefore, when Li Zhi summoned the little ghost, in addition to awakening it with his mind, he also needed some external force to make the copper coin vibrate. This is the reason.

The five ghosts have been receiving Li Zhi's daily sacrifices and training during this period. Now they are becoming more and more in tune with Li Zhi's thoughts. Li Zhi's connection with the five ghosts is becoming clearer and clearer. He can also feel that the five ghosts' intelligence seems to be getting clearer as he sacrifices and trains them.

When it was summoned, it was lifeless, like a robot, doing whatever it said. But now there is a hint of intelligence in its eyes, and sometimes it will wink at Li Zhi after it comes out, and Li Zhi sees all of this.

Perhaps with Li Zhi's training, their intelligence will become higher and higher.

Li Zhi suddenly remembered that Master Liu once said that as long as the spiritual wisdom is opened, everything in the world can be cultivated.

He touched his smooth chin and thought to himself: If these five little ghosts could open their spiritual intelligence, would they be able to practice cultivation as well?

As Li Zhi was thinking, he imagined a scene in which, after the five little ghosts had cultivated to the level of Ghost King, he would lead the five Ghost Kings with red ropes like walking dogs, and then he would punish whoever he disliked.

"Cough cough..."

Li Zhi thought too highly of himself. He felt a little embarrassed and blushed, and couldn't help but cough in embarrassment.

Luckily, he was the only one here, so it wasn't too awkward.

After putting down his sleeves, he stretched out his palm again, and three mosquito demons that he had trained flew over buzzing and landed on his palm.

There are still many mosquito monsters in Li Zhi's cloth bag, but those have not been refined yet and cannot be used for the time being. Now only these three have been refined.

Although there are only three of them, for Li Zhi it is like having three more pairs of eyes. The importance of this is self-evident.

Moreover, although these mosquito monsters are called monsters, they are actually similar to ordinary mosquitoes. Even the monster aura on their bodies is very light. If Li Zhi had not known in advance that they were monsters, he would not have been able to detect them. This is also an excellent disguise.

This mosquito monster has many good points except that it is too fragile. Apart from being able to expand its field of vision, it is just like an ordinary mosquito and can be killed by an ordinary person with a simple slap.

These three were newly refined by Li Zhi. The one he had originally refined, No. 001, had already died after being attacked by the great demon white fox.

Li Zhi stretched out his hand and weighed the cloth bag containing the mosquito monsters, thinking that it was a good thing that there were still quite a few mosquito monsters inside.

He lifted up the three mosquito monsters on his palm, and they flew away.

After Li Zhi sent the mosquito demon away, he took out a small black bead from his arms.

This thing is Li Zhi's biggest trump card. It is a demonic energy bead condensed from the demonic energy of a great demon. Once detonated, its power is equivalent to a full-strength attack from a great demon.

You know, the big demon can make Master Liu vomit blood with just one attack from mid-air. With this full-strength attack, I'm afraid even seven or eight Master Lius wouldn't be able to withstand it.

Li Zhi carefully put the demon bead back into his arms, and he felt a lot more at ease. He finally understood a sentence he had often heard before. The sentence goes like this: Having a nuclear weapon and not using it is different from not having a nuclear weapon in your hand.

There is also a saying: Truth is within the range of cannon.

Li Zhi reached out and touched the place where the demonic beads were placed in his arms, and a smile appeared on his face.

The truth is now in my arms!

After putting everything in his hands in order, Li Zhi thought of the magic spells he knew. Practice, practice. What's the point of practice without magic spells?

However, the only skill he could show off was the ghost-controlling skill. As for the other minor skills like observing qi and nourishing qi, most ordinary people could master them, not to mention the practitioners.

He also asked Master Liu to teach him a few more spells, but Master Liu only said to wait until he was included in the list of Xiaoyao Mountain. Li Zhi could only wait for that day to come.

After sorting it out, Li Zhi had a clearer understanding of himself, so he didn't delay any longer.

After packing up his things, he continued his journey.
